Lines: 35 If you are going to rain on the guy about Ms. Baby factory, I wouldn't do it by saying it isn't anybody's business. I know a girl who planned to get pregnant and live on welfare--at that point it is everybody's bloody business. She felt it is easier to get by on the increased payments from two and three children, too. She was up to two last I heard. Now maybe you should sterilize the fathers too, or just have a war to decide who has to support whom, but you can't just dispose of the problem by saying that it isn't anybody's business what people who can't or won't support themselves do to the population. That kind of attitude gives the KKK something to talk out loud about. They seem in favor of the going to war solution. They also seem to think it's a racial problem, not an economic one. You really buying into these ramifications? I prefer to believe in "live and let live", but on your own dime. Do you really want everyone else doing things that cut into the quality of your life at your expense? How do you justify your view? Damn, I forgot to flame at you! I know: Maybe you are hoping that the children of unwed mothers on government support programs will be forced by social crowding and other pressures into being homosexual! Then you would have empirical evidence for your other flame! (Which seems valid, incidentally.) You're really just a social visionary; you want people like jrl to have something to grouse about so you can write follow-ups. And to think, there isn't any way to break out of sending a followup on this machine; I wonder how much money I just wasted?
